Another ruling on the NSA's activities came down today in New York, and takes a complete opposite stance to the one given in Washington last week. Is this as sure to be accepted by SCOTUS as the media's making it out to be? If it is, when will the ruling probably be?

If the new justice turns out to be moderate/liberal, which issues are likely to be revisited in short order? Is midazolam likely to get another decision?

For Republicans betting on a Trump replacement is still a better bet than betting on an Obama replacement by a mile.

I think it's more that Trump is going to be the nominee and Trump is guaranteed to lose horribly to Clinton. He might even take some senate seats with him.

What I don't understand is why we have to have these tortured justifications and equally tortured refutations instead of just asking some doctors if the requirements are medically justified. There's got to be a medical consensus on the kind of clinical support required for a safe abortion.

You start out in 1954 by saying, "friend of the family, friend of the family, friend of the family." By 1968, you can't say "friend of the family" — that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states' rights and all that stuff. You're getting so abstract now [that] you're talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you're talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites. And subconsciously maybe that is part of it. I'm not saying that. But I'm saying that if it is getting that abstract, and that coded, that we are doing away with the racial problem one way or the other. You follow me — because obviously sitting around saying, "We want to cut this," is much more abstract than even the busing thing, and a hell of a lot more abstract than "friend of the family, friend of the family."

One of my favourite pop facts is that "evidence based medicine" is a subfield of medicine, and it was established in the late 1980s. Not to say the rest of medicine is entirely without evidence, but to quote a friend it usually seems more 'evidence-inspired' than evidence based.
